platform/x86/intel/ifs: Add an entry rendezvous for SAF
mainline inclusion from mainline-v6.9-rc1 commit ad630f5d92717632a15e1d0b92e5421e6eac7c8d category: feature bugzilla: https://gitee.com/openeuler/intel-kernel/issues/IASVRQ CVE: N/A Reference: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/?id=ad630f5d92717632a15e1d0b92e5421e6eac7c8d ------------------------------------- The activation for Scan at Field (SAF) includes a parameter to make microcode wait for both threads to join. It's preferable to perform an entry rendezvous before the activation to ensure that they start the `wrmsr` close enough to each other. In some cases it has been observed that one of the threads might be just a bit late to arrive. An entry rendezvous reduces the likelihood of these cases occurring. Add an entry rendezvous to ensure the activation on both threads happen close enough to each other.
